Anyone got anys ideas on whats wrong with my TP2???

I have been using the Energy Leo Rom’s since September updating whenever I new rom is released, everything has always been fine with them and I absolutely love them. Me and my fiancée both use them, but lately my phone has been restarting over and over and will not boot, it gets to you boot up splash screen and restarts. When this began to happen I wasn’t even using my phone it was recharging as I was updating my computer to Windows 7, anyway I am able to revert back to T-mo’s stock rom and everything works, but whenever I go back to any none stock rom, even earlier ones it keeps doing the reboot thing, our second TP2 is fine. I have done research and haven’t found much I have ran Mtty at least a dozen times, even upgraded my radio, and nothing works but the stock rom, I have cleared storage both the software route, and the power, talk and end button route. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I just can’t handle this stock rom.

Are you able to re-do the Hard spl?
Yes, I have redone it and nothing changed, it goes through the initial TP2 screen showing the radio and other info in red on the bottom, but as soon as it goes to set up the rom is when it restarts. Whats weird is it is never at the exact same time, sometimes will be a second, other up to five seconds.

I know this sounds obvious and dont take it the wrong way but are you sure that the rom you are trying to flash as been unzipped properly and is named correctly. Try re-downloading a fresh rom and unzip it and rename it Rhodimg.nbh and put it on the root of your Sd card and try flashing it from the card. Also is the battery charged?
I am certain that the roms that I have been using are unzipped and named properly, there was actually a flahed rom on this phone that was workig fine until it started resetting with the rom on it, I wasn't updating or anything when it started to act up. Plus I use the same roms on a second TP2 which are working fine. I did try now to flash from my SD card, Hard SPL said it installed correctly but when I rebooted phone its doing the restart thing over and over still. Battery has been at 100% or close to for all flashes.

Freezing 2 minutes after boot

so my phone keeps freezing 2 minutes after it boots up. It started while I was trying to delete some texts off handcent, the whole phone just froze. I had to pull the battery and then when i booted the phone back up, it was acting super laggy and froze a minute or two after boot up. So I have to pull the battery again and it just keeps doing this. Havent installed any new apps or anything. I stopped a few programs from starting up with autostarts but they werent critical programs. anyone have any ideas?
Need some more info.
ROM, kernel, radio, what's your setup?
all stock, rooted with s-off.
I ended up doing a factory reset because I used to use launcherpro and after one of the numerous resets the phone went back to sense home and everything was gone.
Im still curious as to what i could have been...

[Q] Camera Broken Upon Update?

Anyone else have the camera load to a blank black screen with no buttons in any and all apps that utilize the camera? Camera, Barcode Scanner, Sniper Shot, and all other programs that use the camera fail to load since the update. Anyone have any idea as to why?

Did you try a restart, I have heard of camera problems like this before (i think first FroYo update) and all it needed was a simple reboot.
Reboot didn't work. I reflashed the rom and BAM, it worked again. Crisis averted.
I have the same problem.
I'm running the following:
Azreal 3.0
circular battery widget update
removed HTC lock screen
superior battery charging kernel
wifi hotspot patch
I'm currently trying things to figure out what will fix it.
Here are the current things I have tried that did NOT fix the problem:
Reboot
Wipe cache/davlik cache
fix UID mismatches
I then reflashed azreal 3.0
At this point the camera worked again but everything was wiped. I then reapplied the following patches:
Circular battery
remove HTC lock screen
wifi/hotspot patch
after this everything continued to work
I then applied:
superior battery charging kernel and it broke again
I think the problem is the superior battery charging kernel
i am having the same problem and have not been successful yet fixing it. switched from cm7 back to stock to update my prl and tryed to use the camera while stock when the black blank screen happened. flashed to evdo(sense) and same result. flashed back to cm7 and the 1st time i opened camera it opened the ffc. when i tried to switch and everytime i have tried to open it since i get "camera error cannot connect to camera" help plz!
If you have HW 0004 phone or HW003 with the new camera, you have to make sure your rom has a kernel with the NEW drivers. The kernel in my signature has the new drivers for ASOP roms (like cm 7).
just flashed Savaged-Zen-V002-CFS-HAVS-SBC-WiMAX - GB.zip
with the same result running cm7. seems like ive tried 20 different things with no success. everything i have flashed has been off my sd meaning i have had all of it running before at one time or another with no problem. i really cant think of what ive done new to have caused this
Same here
Happened to me right after I flashed calkulins_format_all.zip and then the MikFroyo4.4.zip yesterday. I thought it was a problem with mikfroyo so I flashed Azraelz 3.1 and still the same issue (i was using azrael 3.0 with no prob prior to mikfroyo).
I'll post if I find anything that works, please also give any suggestions i'm willing to try anything b4 i take her to sprint.
I also flashed calkulins evio rom. When I flash back to stock it will start running again sometimes. Not even right away though. It will be black for a while then if I just let the phone sleep for a bit and come back to it bam. Camera again. For a little while. Then back to the same thing an hour later without doing anything! This is very frustrating! Someone plz help!

UPDATE
I turned my phone off and switched SD cards to one that has an old backup (3.29, kernel#11), when I booted into recovery, I could hear clicking noices coming from the lens, at a super fast rate (say 2-3 clicks a second).
Not wanting to do any more damage I turned off the phone.
I did just take my phone to sprint to fix my kick stand, maybe they did something to mess with me (thats just my paranoid side speaking)...
But what gives? What would make the camera shutter do that while im in recovery (btw using latest amon ra recovery)?

Dialer/phone FC every rom

So i have started encountering a problem in which about 3 minutes into a phone call my phone freezes and then ultimately turns off and only way to turn it back on is removing the battery and then power button.
I have had this problem on every rom starting on CM. After it happened on this rom i flashed juggs, beast, and da bomb (or whatever) and everyone it still happened. I wiped data, cache and delvik before every flash but this did not help.
I eventually just odin back to stock with the stock tar that is posted somewhere in this forum. This still has the problem. I found that it generally happens if i move from my ear and the screen turns on and then it wont turn back off and no menus are available (ak i cant get into dialer if i call bank or 800 number to input a number) and then it just completely freezes and turns off.
Any help with this would be great. I mean making phone calls is probably the most important part of a "phone" working. So i really need this to be fixed asap. thanks

Looks like it might be a kernal problem. Have you flashed back to the stock kernal? If not, I'd look there first
yeah i flashed stock kernal as well...problem still persist
uninstall Google+
no google + never have had it.
Have you tried flashing CM7 Alpha #2? I had that same problem with Alpha #1 release then flashed #2 fixed permissions. Then at first start up i rebooted with GPS on and voila! No more phone FC.
I started with Alpha #1 where the problem started flashed over #2 fixed permissions and same problem. thats when i started flashing the other roms to try to solve the problems but this hasnt helped. So i odin back to stock. flashed stock kernal and stock recovery. and i still have the problem.
What sucks is im just graduating college and im starting to receive calls from future employers and i cannot talk for more then 2 minutes before my phone decides to shut off.
So any other advice???
bump it up. Any help please...::
what it is doing now update: I click on a contact or type a number and press call and the screen turns black except the status bar. soft keys dont work, hard keys dont work. phone is a fail. people can still hear me and i can still hear them but the phone is unusable and i have to pull battery to get out of the black screen.
This was doing it on every rom and i have now put beastmod v2 4.0 still no luck :[
I just received my White GS2, finished the OTA update.
And yes, the dialer FC on me every single time once I push the hangup button.

N7100 keeps freezing

I've recently started having trouble with my N7100 freezing/locking up.
I bought it shortly after launch, so it's a little over 1 1/2 years old. I had flashed one of the first rooted 4.1.2 firmware that was available, and never bothered updating because it was stable and got great battery life and I didn't feel like dealing with ROM stuff. But recently with the official 4.4.2, I decided to finally update, and decided on trying out DN3. So I flashed the latest TWRP, did the usual backing every thing up, flashed the MJ5 bootloader, and flashed it. It kept bootlooping, so I figured something went wrong, so I restored my 4.1.2 backup. This was where the freezing began. It was to the point where I couldn't use it. Tried rebooting a few times, but every time it would freeze as soon as it booted or shortly after. I assumed something just went wrong with the backup, so I tried flashing DN3 again. This time it booted successfully, but would occasionally freeze, most often when loading an app, but sometimes just randomly. After a couple days it seemed to subside. Then I decided to try out OmniRom. Same thing -- it would occasionally freeze up, then after a while would be fine. (Note: these were both clean installs.) Seems like every time I'd flash an updated version of Omni, the freezing issue would flare back up. Just now, I flashed the latest homemade build, and the freezing was really bad again, to the point where I can't even use it. Sometimes it'll freeze the instant it finishes booting, sometimes it'll freeze a few seconds after, sometimes it'll finish booting and will be fine until I load an app, then would freeze, and sometimes it would be fine for a couple minutes and the just freeze randomly. What's odd about it is that the screen is still responding to touch. Every thing's locked up, but when I touch the screen, the capacitive buttons light up as though it's still working fine, but nothing else works. I've even had a couple times where I let it sit for about 10 minutes and then it started responding again.
What's really frustrating is that I can't find a common cause here.Started on 4.1.2 (which had never had any issues beforehand), continues on a clean install of DN3, and continues on a clean install of OmniRom. Disabling Xposed and removing my SD card had no effect. It boots fine into recovery and download modes.
Does anyone know what the issue could be here?
EDIT: And now I've done a complete wipe, again, and reflashed DN3, again, and it appears to be working fine. Go figure.
It's not suddenly death?
